    So what

    This is what most people think.... We are Rocket fans. So our minds are kind of bias. People we did just turnover our whole roster. The fact we didn't make the playoffs last year, and this year the team is worst. Wake up!!

    Is Oct 12th Anthony Davis' first NBA game? So Rockets first home game and Davis! And on a Friday.

    Can't beat that!

    I would go to both NOLA games. Too bad the one in New Orleans is a Wednesday.

    I don't really care about the outcome of these games. If we lose, let's get it out of the way before they count. All I ask for is a smackdown in Orlando everytime we play them.
